A Charming Traditional Dumfriesshire Smallholding With Grazing Paddocks, Pretty Amenity Woodland And Traditional Courtyard Steading Situated Within A Stunning Rural Location
Waterside Steading is situated in a beautiful tranquil rural location surrounded by woodlands and farmland with its land gently sloping down to the banks of the Old Water.
Waterside Steading is a wonderful rural smallholding which benefits from a charming traditional three-bedroom bungalow built in 1996.
The property is approached from a minor road through a gated entrance into a driveway and yard providing ample parking for several vehicles. Garden grounds surround the property and are made up of a plethora of shrubs, perennials, lawns, mature trees and a small orchard with vegetable and fruit beds, the boundary to the East meeting with the Old Water which is bordered by mature deciduous native trees along its length. There are dedicated paved patios making this the perfect place for alfresco dining and family and social entertaining.
The steading at present is utilised for storage and workshop space and an additional stone outbuilding is home to the owners family of ducks and chickens. There is a meadow of around three and a half acres currently grazed by a small flock of sheep with two gated road access points and a gate from the garden. There is a smaller paddock to the North of the steading with gated road access and with a large Hay Barn and outbuilding and with a fenced dog/run/chicken-run. (dog kennels will not be included)
To the South of the property is a sympathetically managed ancient amenity woodland with mixed planting partly with Sitka Spruce currently felled for timber and firewood and replanted with native trees. The woodland is sympathetically managed to increase the diversity of flora and fauna and is a haven for wildlife.
The Steading is a traditional stone-built steading with a barn, an L-shaped cow byre, an additional cow-byre and, a bull-pen plus an additional stone outbuilding all set around a traditional courtyard. Which planning permission has been submitted for conversion to residential use. (planning ref: 23/2018/ful). To the West of the property there is a large Granary outbuilding with electric currently used as a workshop and store. There is a purpose built small stable attached to the rear of this building currently used as a log-store.
The whole property sits in about 7.36 acres, presenting a bounty of opportunities for a rural lifestyle such as smallscale agriculture, equestrian or tourism purposes, with huge potential for some self-sufficient living, along with the benefit of riparian fishing rights on the Old Water.
It would be of particular interest to those with an interest in ecology and biodiversity and has been currently managed following Permaculture principles. Given the location of the property Waterside Steading attracts a wealth and variety of native wildlife, including red squirrels and deer, herons and wood-peckers which can be enjoyed on a daily basis
